Birth Control

The access to the Birth control is an essential human right. For woman and men to control their lives, they must be in control of their bodies. It hasn’t been easy achieving this right, fighting against the misconceptions of contraception’s. Although it has contributed to the economic growth and of the world, it is still being challenged. It has overcome many challenges, the right to birth control, and it is still so frail.

Before the legalization of birth control and the industrial revolution, desperate measure we take. The black market thrived, producing painful, household items for woman and unusual devices for men. Even though these were bought, the result was still a pregnancy, a birth defect or a mother or child perished. Once these were illegalizes, they were disguised as female hygiene products, with the same efficiency as before. Even doctors were mis-informed, advising women to engage in sexual acts at her highest fertility period. Then, In 1918, condoms were legalized in the United States. The development of the Oral contraception Pill closely followed the condom. These led to progress with other forms of contraception and the overall health of the world.

The Legalization of birth control made a huge positive impact throughout the world. Birth control has lowered the maternal death rate by as much as one-third. It has resulted in economic growth producing led dependent children, woman that are in the workforce nad that are getting a higher education, and diminishing financial barriers for young people or that are in poverty. Abortion cost and usage have lower drastically because or emergency contraception or just the routine method of choice. Even though many positive outcomes came from contraception, woman are still fighting for their right for birth control and many any argue, more now than ever.

Certain organizations are now arising, challenging birth control and peoples’ integrity as a whole. At least five states in the United States...

Introduction
In this modern age, we must prepare our world for the next generation and ensure our descendants have adequate resources to thrive on our Blue Planet. With the pressures of an expanding population ahead, it is the direct responsibility of the General Assembly to take initiative in foreseeing an end to this multigenerational stressor.
Topic Background
The world’s population started to accelerate in the middle of the 18th century with the advent of the Industrial Revolution, associated with the developments in agriculture. In fact, population growth is now concentrated in the developing regions of Asia, Africa, and Latin America, which accounted for "85 percent of the increase of global population since 1950". However, in the developed world (North America, Europe, Russia, and Oceania), birth rates have declined and gradually stabilized.
Each year the number of human beings increases, but the amount of natural resources with which to sustain this population remains finite. The gap between the population and resources is immense because much of the population is highly concentrated in developing and low-income countries, which many governments do not have the ability to provide basic living conditions for their citizens. Due to the limited resources on earth and in various countries, it is vital for all the nations unite together to...

...church and artificial birthcontrol, in her article, starting in 1930 when a division between Christian denominations developed over the use of artificial birthcontrol. The Lambeth Conference of the Church of England decided to deviate from the prohibition of artificial contraception, by advocating their use when abstinence was deemed impracticable. In 1931, The Federal Council of Churches adopted the policy of conservative promotion for artificial birthcontrol methods. By 1961, the National Council of Churches declared a liberal policy on contraceptive use, subject to mutual consent between couples.[1] Protestant denominations including Anglicans, Presbyterians, Reformed, and Episcopalians allow artificial birthcontrol. Most Protestants view birthcontrol within marriage as an acceptable way of regulating the size of one's family. Historically, Orthodox Christians opposed birthcontrol and although some still follow this belief, many hold the position that sexual intercourse also constitutes an expression of love within a marriage and is not limited to procreation. Orthodox and Protestant Churches allow married couples to make their own decisions on contraceptive use. On the other hand, the Catholic Church remains firm in their opposition to artificial means to birthcontrol...

BirthControl: Just having sex, or safe sex?
​Birthcontrol is considered to be a marvelous thing in some women’s eyes; however, the thought of teenagers taking it is somewhat looked down on by many. Some people ask, “Is it okay for unmarried teens to get on birthcontrol, and does it give them an okay to have sex with whoever they want, whenever they want?” The whole point of birthcontrol is to prevent a pregnancy, yes, and this may mean that teens are out having sex, but they are having safe sex.
There is more than one side to this argument. Some people may say that teens should not be on birthcontrol because it just gives them an excuse to go out and have sex with whomever they please whenever they please. The different types of birthcontrol have good things about them, but there are bad things about them as well. Some different kinds of birthcontrol include, “the pill,” “the shot,” male and female condoms, diaphragms, and IUDs (intra-uterine device). The only one of these options that protects against STDs is the condom (pros and cons). People could say that birthcontrol is expensive and is too much of a hassle, or too expensive, but there are free clinics close to just about every community. These free clinics, like their...

...most passionately debated subjects of controversy in the United State. Since the early decades of the 20th century, abortion was used as a measure of limiting families to a manageable size. In the past, due to the lack of knowledge, many families usually gave birth to a lot of children that they could not afford to raise, which is why abortion was abused in early times as an extreme measure of birthcontrol to avoid further poverty to families. Today, many abortions are given to women under the age of 22. There are not many teenage girls who have sex use protection the first time. Impulsive, ignorant, and irresponsible behavior often lead to unwanted pregnancy. Forcing a woman to raise an unwanted child is the ultimate form of child abuse, for the child will receive less of the loving maternal relationship she or he deserves. Moreover, given birth at the early age may cause a great danger on the young mother as well as the baby, etc. By these reasons, we should consider the right of women to decide whether she should keep the baby or not.
Nowadays, many teenage girls have sex in their early age and get pregnant by the lack of knowledge in sexual relationship. If they can not have abortion, they are forced to give birth to the child and raise it while they are still in school. It's not fair for them because they still have the whole school life and their future ahead. That will interrupt their...

...Against Population Control
“Human population control is the practice of artificially altering the rate of growth of a human population. Historically, human population control has been implemented by limiting the population's birth rate, usually by government mandate, and has been undertaken as a response to factors including high or increasing levels of poverty, environmental concerns, religious reasons, and overpopulation. While population control can involve measures that improve people's lives by giving them greater control of their reproduction, some programs have exposed them to exploitation. Worldwide, the population control movement was active throughout the 1960s and 1970s, driving many reproductive health and family planning programs. In the 1980s, tension grew between population control advocates and women's health activists who advanced women's reproductive rights as part of a human rights-based approach. Growing opposition to the narrow population control focus led to a significant change in population control policies in the early 1990s” ( Wikipedia)
Methods of population control:
* Contraception ( Birthcontrol also known as “contraception” and “fertility control” refers to methods and or devices used to prevent pregnancy)
* Abstinence*

BirthControl: Availability to Teens.
Many teenagers today are very sexually active and take the risk that comes with sexual intercourse. Education is our number once source in getting sexual information out to our teens: “We have got to start educating our teenagers by introducing the ABC's for sexual education. "A-abstinence; B-be faithful; C-latex condoms." (Rosenthal 113). A type of contraceptive, also called birthcontrol, is to do just that: controlbirth. Teen and teen births are greatly rising over the years due to lack of education, contraceptives, and finances. Teenagers now days do not wait till a certain age to become sexually active, more and more teens are starting at a younger age. Whether they are having sex or engaging in another form of sexual activity. “The principle behind age-of-consent law is that teens below a certain age are not mature enough to make an intelligent decision about engaging in sexual activity. Twenty-six states set the age of consent for medical making decisions at twelve years of age, yet no state sets the age sexual consent at less than sixteen. Some states provide no provisions for sexual relations between teens of the same age, provided that they are older than twelve, but there is always a penalty if one of the partners is a certain number of years older. Teens are no better prepared to make decisions about their medical...

...Birthcontrol as a movement in the US has had a very uneven relationship to movements for women s rights. Discuss early birthcontrol reform efforts in relationship to issues of gender and class power.
Birthcontrol was an early-twentieth-century slogan, but it has become the generic for all forms of control of reproduction. With the spread of agriculture and the economic advantages of large families, religious and in some cases secular law increasingly restricted birthcontrol, with the result that there appears to have been an increase in reliance on abortion while contraceptive technology and use declined. Both practices were legal in the United States until the mid-nineteenth century.
